Dear Colleagues, I'm putting together the last pieces for our support groups first newsletter and some one asked me, why a newsletter...don't we have the internet? So my question to you is how much influence does the internet have with PWP. My answer is very little because only about 6-8% of PWP have access to the internet or understand it well enough to unearth items in which they are jnterested So if you wouldn't mind would you or the group leader ask the group *How many people in group that day________ *Of this number how many have computers[or regular access]_______ *Of this number how many have e-mail______ *OR access to the internet______ *AND access to the internet______ *How many understand their computers well enough to retrieve information in which they have some interest _______ TRY IT AND LET ME KNOW. PLEASE A few 0ther questions How many read a newspaper every day Watch the news including the science/medical news PD is a very isolating disease Thank You george
